Fortunately, there are just as many who welcome these younger residents. I hope FloridaNative has found this to be true as well.

Well said, Redwitch. One of the biggest reasons we bought our retirement home there is because everybody appeared to be SOO happy while we were visiting. I encounter a lot of "old biddies" who aren't happy if they aren't complaining where I live now, so the attitude there was very refreshing. Imagine my surprise when I start seeing comments that sound more like the 6th grade bully than a mature adult!
